7.5 Appendix E. IRClient User’s Guide

Before launching IRClient, you may need to configure the "client.prf" file.

The format of the "client.prf" file is as follows (default value in brackets):

line 1: COM port name for communication with infra-red transceiver (COM1)

line 2: COM port baud rate for infra-red transceiver (9600)

line 3: TCP/IP port number to connect to IRServer on (2200)

The file must be called "client.prf" and located in the same directory as IRClient.

After launching IRClient, you will be presented with a dialog asking you to enter the

host name of the server you wish to connect to. This could be "localhost" if IRServer

and IRClient are running on the same machine. After entering the host name, press the

OK button.

You will then be presented with a window containing a list. Each line in the list

represents a different event. Recent events are shown at the top of the list. At this

point, IRClient is able to send, receive and handle connections from IRServer.

When you have finished using IRClient, choose "Exit" from the "File" menu. This

will quit IRClient and close any open TCP/IP connections.
